[0001] The present invention relates to the field of information communication, and in particular to a signal transmission technology for aviation equipment during simulation testing, and specifically to an integrated long-distance transmission method for high / medium frequency digital signals of aviation equipment. Background Art

[0002] When aviation equipment is undergoing simulation testing, the equipment is fixed in a microwave darkroom and the signal is generated from the equipment end. If the equipment signal is directly collected and processed in the darkroom, it will not only have a safety impact on personnel and equipment, but also damage the electromagnetic environment in the darkroom, affecting the equipment test. It is necessary to use certain methods to effectively transmit the various high / medium frequency digital signals generated by the equipment in a complex electromagnetic environment to the remote data acquisition device.

[0003] However, the test signals that the equipment needs to send include parallel intermediate frequency bus signals and high-frequency low-level differential bus signals. The effective transmission distance of these signals is less than 5 meters. When the signals are transmitted over a long distance of more than 40 meters, the signal attenuation is obvious and cannot meet the remote testing requirements. In addition, under the interference of signals such as high-power motors and RF antennas in the darkroom, the characteristics of the signal are obviously interfered with, making it impossible to collect and interpret the equipment signals. In addition, in complex electromagnetic environments, when performing equipment simulation tests, the signal acquisition system still has the problem of being scattered and bloated. Summary of the invention

[0009] The communication protocol 3 is as follows: a) Set the baud rate to 10MHz; b) completing data framing according to frame counter, data bit, data bit accumulation and data bit accumulation; c) Set the data sending period to 24ms.

[0010] The standard signal 2 is an RS485 bus signal.

[0011] The single chip microcomputer is an STM32 single chip microcomputer.

[0012] The present invention has the following advantages: by connecting a multi-layer embedded signal processing device to the equipment signal output end, the present invention transmits different types of equipment signals through a specific communication protocol, thereby avoiding the problem of unreliable transmission caused by attenuation and disturbance of equipment sending signal characteristics caused by factors such as long-line transmission and complex electromagnetic environment, and breaking through the difficulties of high / medium frequency signals being unable to be transmitted over long distances and having poor signal quality under the complex electromagnetic environment of the test site.
